Aye, Tony Cunningham and Bobby Shinton et al will be gutted. It doesn't affect Milburn ,Supermac and Shearerin in 50 year, , the only tree good ones you had.Lets not retire the shirt Number 9.... you embarrass the club. Beardsley was better than most.
They would have to do a transfer contract that had a clause that said in the event we are relegated they buy him back for the same price. Think the PL wouldnt look be happy with it but probably not much they could do apart from ban such deals in future.
